Matrilocal Marriage

Chapter 40: Bury the hatchet

Entering the main hall, only Lin Wei sits alone in the main seat. This is very abnormal. In the morning and twilight, Mrs. Lin will never be absent, even if she is absent occasionally, it is Master Lin.

Yun An sensitively caught a slight strangeness, and subconsciously looked at Lin Buxian, who was just as usual beside him.

The two came to Lin Wei and knelt on the futon: "Please greet my father."

"Well, get up and sit down."

"Thank you father."

As a modern person, Yun’an doesn’t like to kneel when there’s nothing to do, but Twilight and Twilight is the family rule of the Lin Mansion, plus Lin Wei looks like Yun’an’s father. Every time he knocks his head, Yun’an will The second elders of the Lin family wanted to be their own parents, so there was not so much rejection in their hearts.

After so many days, Yun’an’s mentality has also undergone significant changes. From the initial resistance, to trying his best to relieve himself, to the end a series of thoughts on “filial piety” aroused by Yun’an.

Foolish filial piety is certainly not worthy of praise, but from a certain perspective, the filial piety of the ancients is still worthy of modern people's thinking and learning.

Flower growers respect Confucianism. "Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, justice, courtesy, wisdom and trust" are traditional virtues condensed in their bones. However, with the rapid integration of globalization and eclecticism, the traditional culture of flower growers is also suffering a certain impact.

For example, some intangible cultural heritage and festivals that have belonged to flower growers for generations are being coveted by the neighbors next door and frequently applied for heritage. The reasons are diversified, but they will (fa) induce these things. It is worth pondering for every flower planter.

In thousands of years, will the Dragon Boat Festival, Fengshui culture and Chinese medicine, as they are now, be the world-recognized culture that originated from flower growers and carried forward flower growers?

Yunan has always felt that cultural identity is a sentiment higher than regional identity. Traditional culture is the root of a nation. If this root is eroded and deprived by the younger generation, that day will come... Where will the cohesion of this nation manifest?

"Msang Gong?" Hearing Lin Buxian's gentle call, Yun An suddenly returned to his senses. He looked around and saw the worry seeping through those deep eyes. Of course, Yun An knew that these were all her personal opinions and couldn't do it. true.

"what's happenin?"

"Father is calling you, what are you thinking?" Lin Buxian asked.

"Sorry, thinking of something, I lost my mind for a while." Yun'an hid the messy thoughts in his heart again, got up and bowed to Lin Wei in a respectful manner: "Please forgive me, father."

"sit down."

"Yes."

"Recently, are you accustomed to living? Can you still get used to eating and using?"

"Very well, everyone around me is very attentive, thank you father for caring."

"Ok."

Lin Wei continued to ask, "I heard that you don't have an exclusive servant girl by your side, right?"

"Yes. Rier and Yugishun take care of me on weekdays. It's good."

"This is unreasonable. It is difficult for Xian'er to take charge of such a large family business. Your mother is in charge of these things in the backyard, but she is too old to forget about it. There is no competent person by your side. , This won’t work. Let’s do it... I think Lin Tao is fast and safe, so I will send him to you to be a handy housekeeper. As for the maid..."

"Father." Lin Buxian took the conversation and called.

"Huh? Do you have a suitable candidate?"

"Yes, my daughter thinks Rui Er is pretty good, so I'll send her to be a first-class maid next to my grandfather."

"Rui Er? Isn't that the maid in charge of the housekeeping beside you? Give her to Yun'an, how about you?"

"My daughter is looking for another one. Besides, my daughter doesn't spend much time in the house. It's better to let Ruier take care of Xianggong's diet and daily life. After all, Ruier is a well-known old man next to her daughter, and the daughter can rest assured. ."

"Well then, you order to go down in a while."

"Yes."

Lin Buxian still couldn't see anything on the face, but a trace of anxiety arose in his heart. Lin Tao and Yun An didn't know this, but Lin Buxian knew very well. Lin Tao was born in a two-generation family. Lin Tao's father was his father's close friend. This father and son were loyal to his father. Even if his father ordered them to go to the knife and go to the pan, they would not frown.

There were so many people in the mansion, but his father assigned Lin Tao to Yun'an. This behavior was originally questionable, and it was still at this point...Yesterday Yun'an just returned from the ethereal building. Afterwards, Lin Buxian tried his best to make up for it. He took the man back with the carriage, and asked Rui'er to go to the door to wait, but the Patriarch of Lin Mansion was his father after all, as long as he wanted to know anything, he couldn't help it.

Lin Tao...Lin Buxian has heard a little about it. It is said that he helped his father with many "troublesome things".

So after hearing this name, Lin Buxian couldn't take much care of it, and immediately assigned Rui'er, who was closest to him, to Yun'an. No matter what his father thought about Yun'an, the identity of Yun'an woman must not be violent. (Exposure), the identity of the children of criminal officials cannot be discerned by Lin Tao at all, otherwise, with the father's (sexual) son... Yun'an is likely to have an accident.

Don't look at Lin Wei's usual appearance of idle clouds and wild cranes, not looking at world affairs, but he has the qualities that all big family heads should have. If not, those people who are side branches will not live in peace for so many years.

Yun An still didn't realize it. Sandwiched between the father and daughter, Lin Wei also understood the thoughts of his daughter to some extent. The father and daughter had their own thoughts, and they were calm on the surface, sitting upright.

Lin Wei took the tea cup and took a sip, then put it down and asked casually: "I heard the porter said that you only came back late last night?"

Finally asked the subject, Lin Buxian's eyelids twitched, and Yun An also sat upright.

"Yes, I went out to meet a friend, and I came back a bit late."

Lin Buxian pursed his lips and did not speak.

"Is it an old friend or a new one? If you have time, please come to the mansion for a visit."

"It's an old friend. My father also knows Li Yuan and Li Konggu."

"Oh, it turned out to be him. Although Li Yuan was expelled from the Li Mansion, he still has his fame and fame, even if it is a banquet, you can't neglect it. Pick some good places."

Yun An understood right away. The old man should have known the matter of going to the Misty Building, and he was instructing himself.

Yun An hesitated for a moment, and Lin Buxian told him not to say it, but Yun An always felt that this matter should be explained, and when he was embarrassed, he heard Lin Buxian's voice.

"Father, Xiang Gong first entered the Lin Mansion, and he didn’t know much about the things in our mansion. He didn’t know about some of our properties. The daughter planned to ask the Xiang Gong to go with him when he visited the shop next time. First, let the Xiang Gong know about the family. The second thing is to let the people below meet each other, and it will be easier in the future."

"Your arrangement is, Dad is old, don't care about it."

"Yes."

"Father, the daughter knew about the fact that Xianggong went out to meet Li San's brother yesterday. After returning home, the Xianggong also told his daughter the reason. This matter...the daughter knows it well."

There was an accident in Yun An's eyes. The three people in the field knew about the incident of "walking" in the brothel by themselves. There was only a layer of window paper that hadn't been pierced. Lin Buxian's saying that was not equivalent to telling Lin Wei, himself She knew about the "walking" in the brothel, and she didn't intend to pursue it?

Thinking of this, Yun An sighed in his heart. Putting aside the shackles of the times and being too conservative, Lin Buxian is a good wife who can't fault anything in any time and space, dignified, beautiful, and elegant. Zhi (sexual xing), a good family background and personal ability, think about his attitude towards her last night, Yun An feels that it shouldn't be, and there are some things that can clearly be said.

In fact, what Lin Buxian said is reasonable. No matter where it is placed in any time and space, girls from good people should not go to Fengyue places, but in modern times, it can be explained by the phrase "the clearer is self-cleaning", but it will not work in this era.

Lin Wei looked at Lin Buxian for a few breaths, and finally retracted his gaze like a compromise, and said, "Go, you can go back to your own yard for breakfast today, your mother (shen) I feel unwell, I want to go see it."

"Yes."

Lin Buxian and Yun An both got up, bowed to Lin Wei, and exited the main hall.

After walking a long distance, Lin Buxian's body relaxed, and sighed lightly.

"What's wrong? Tired?"

Lin Buxian shook his head and said, "Let's go to the meal first, and then go to the study after the meal."

"it is good."

...

After breakfast, Lin Buxian and Yun'an came to the study and saw Rui'er who had been waiting for a long time at the entrance of the study.

Ruier held a brocade box in both hands and handed it to Lin Buxian: "Miss, this is what you want." When Ruier saw Yunan on the side, she understood something.

"You are here just right, there is something to tell you."

"Yes."

"From now on, you are going to serve the grandfather, take care of her daily life, diet and daily life. I have discussed this with my father."

"Yes."

"Go, you don't need to move where you live, it's still there."

"Yes."

"Sister Ruier, please take care of me from now on." Yunan smiled.

Rui'er gave Yun'an a thousand blessings and said, "Rui'er has seen the master."

"Sister Ruier, you are welcome."

"Let's go in." Lin Buxian said.

"it is good."

Entering the study, Lin Buxian did not choose to sit behind the bookcase, but instead asked Yun'an to sit at the long table aside. The two sat opposite each other. Lin Buxian flipped the two cups and poured them separately for Yun'an and himself. A cup of water.

There was another long silence, Yun An drank the water in the cup, put down the cup, and proactively said to Lin Buxian, "I'm sorry about what happened yesterday." After thinking about it, Yun An continued, "I'm sorry. Yesterday’s behavior...I don’t know how to explain it to you. I reflected on that there is indeed something wrong, but you can’t or can’t say that to me. You have wronged me. There is also that I shouldn’t be with you. Speak so loudly, I know you are good for me."

Lin Buxian was surprised that Yun'an could say this. After all, Yun'an's reaction yesterday was not peaceful. After returning to the room, he was still angry. Just now, Lin Buxian was still thinking about how to calm her emotions.

"This is the end of the matter, so let's learn the lesson. There was something wrong with what I said last night, and I hope you don't take it to heart."

"Then are we reconciled?" Yun'an asked.

Looking at Yun An, Lin Buxian always felt that this person was difficult to understand, not difficult to understand, but a lot of changes, just like now, just like a child.

"Yeah." Lin Buxian nodded. Anyway, getting along with Yun'an made Lin Buxian easy. She didn't have to think too much, let alone worry too much. This relaxed state itself was hard to come by.

Lin Buxian pushed the brocade box in front of Yun'an and said, "This is for you."

"What is it?"

Yunan opened the box, and inside was a half-slap-sized jade card, snow-white and white, but there was a blood red (color) pattern in the middle of the jade card, which actually formed the character of the country of Yan, "four".

"This jade pendant is the coming-of-age gift given to me by my father in the year of Jizheng. With this jade pendant, you can walk freely in any industry under the Lin Mansion. You can withdraw money below 100,000 taels at will without notification. Lin Mansion is in Luoyang. There are many industries in the city. The two best places are Qibaolou and Tingchao Xuan. If you entertain friends in the future, you can go to these two places."

"This... is too expensive, I can't take it."

"Take it, in the eyes of outsiders, you are the son-in-law of the Lin Mansion after all. You are away from home, leaving your own property and don't want to go, go to other people's places to cheer, and you have to be talked about. It is more convenient to have it. It's good to have a token when I come back."

"But the power of this jade medal is too great, so you are not afraid that I will run away all the silver in your shop?"

Lin Buxian chuckled and said, "I believe you."

"Okay, then I'll take it." Yun'an felt warm in his heart, rubbing the jade pendant in his hand for a moment, and solemnly held it in his arms.

"Yixi."

"Ok?"

"Your father seems to know that I went to the Misty Building."

"It makes sense. Although my father hasn't asked about world affairs in the past few years, the troubles in the house can't escape the eyes of his old man."

"What should I do? Will it have a bad influence on you? Actually, I just wanted to confess and explain it to him."

"Don't do that. Your identity is an absolute secret. Even my parents can't reveal too much information. In case they catch anything, I'm afraid I can't protect you."

Lin Buxian looked at Yun'an and said, "Lin Tao, you have to be careful."

"I know, he was sent by your father to watch me, right?"

Lin Buxian nodded, and said to his heart: This person is a young lady from a noble family. Although she has a simple mind, she is not a blank sheet of paper, so she can feel relieved.

"Lin Tao is loyal to his father. Don't tell him too much. You should take him occasionally in the Pingyi Mansion, and don't take him every time, so that he can't see that you are guarding him, and let him understand you a little Son, but don’t master it too thoroughly. But Lin Tao is a good man, and he has some family-renowned skills. It’s okay to let him protect your safety."

Yun An smiled and said, "Don't worry, I am not a troublemaker, and there is no need to bring a thug."

Lin Buxian glared at Yun An with a smile.

Seeing Lin Buxian's eyes, Yun An suddenly flashed in his mind to smash the Tongguang pawnshop and beat up the "heroic deeds" of seven or eight guys, blushing.

When Lin Buxian saw this, he also raised his mouth.

This time, the two people thought of one thing.
